WEDDING & RECEPTION SITE DECOR (Enhancement Packages):

When people talk about a great wedding they attended, they focus on the visuals – the flowers, the tables, how the room was decorated. A visually beautiful wedding is one where the décor elements have been planned to work together in a harmonious manner. When guests enter the wedding site, whether it’s on a patio or the beach or in a ballroom, they should immediately sense that this celebration has a unique look that expresses the personality of the bride and groom.

A nautical or maritime theme or a festive junkanoo theme can make it a unique occasion and bring the essence of your wedding in The Islands Of The Bahamas to life - carried off effectively, themes can be stylish and have a great impact.

WEDDING DAY PAMPERING: (please check all that apply)
Every bride should have a massage on the morning of her wedding – this is her time to relax and gather herself in preparation for her day ahead. It is advisable that the bride brings her make-up with her, this Is not a day to find out she is allergic to the foundation the make-up artist uses. The bride should wash her hair the night before the wedding rather than the morning of; it makes the hair look fuller and gives it more body.

PHOTOGRAPHY:
A photographer and videographers’s work will be the permanent record of your once-in-a-lifetime event. This is one area where you shouldn’t skimp, do you plan just having them work at the ceremony or reception as well? Please note: If you are having 15+ guests, we recommend a package upgrade – the photographer will want to concentrate on capturing all of the special moments during the ceremony and afterwards, everyone will want a picture with the bride and groom. You will not want to disappoint them.

EMAIL WEDDING ANNOUNCEMENT:
Email your wedding announcement with your wedding photo to friends and loved one’s who could not join you on this joyous occasion. It is also a wonderful greeting when wedding guests return, thanking them for coming. We will need a list of your email addresses in advance.
RHYTHM OF THE NIGHT - MUSIC & ENERGY:
It would seem, live music has more impact than recorded music. Many of the most powerful moments at wedding ceremonies occur with a particularly moving piece played by a musician, or a song sung by a vocalist or choir. Using live music at the ceremony may actually be easier than using recordings, because musicians can respond to the speed of the procession and extend or shorten their playing as necessary. Recorded music on the other hand may be best suited for the reception and DJs can mix up a wide variety of music, they don’t take breaks and a talented DJ can sense the tempo of the crowd and keep the energy of the party going.

Trumpeters (to announce arrival of bride and start of the recessional)
Junkanoo Rush-out
*Organist (for church ceremonies)
**Local Opera Singer (recommended for church weddings - arias such as Ava Maria)
***Spiritual harmonizing group for wedding of reception or both
 







Tips
* Choose an up-tempo song for the first dance that will flow into the father-bride and mother-groom dances and the last dance too.

Have you made your selection for the first dance, by which artist?

* We will need a “must play” list and you should also prepare a “play under no circumstances list” as well
